Default Re: Snap rings

Brent is correct. I use TWO screwdrivers. One in the left hand to "stake" the tapered end of ring and the other in my right hand to pry out the "reverse taper" end from the groove.

I did this while sitting on the floor with the hub pinched between my legs.

Wear eye protection and stout jeans!
